Can You Grow Your SRS Retirement Fund Without Being Taxed? Yes! [First Dibs 119 (Repost)]

In Singapore, we follow a tiered tax system. When you make more, you get taxed more. Thus, many of us are thinking of ways to reduce our taxes (legally, of course). What if there is a way to reduce tax and also prepare for your retirement at the same time? The Supplementary Retirement Scheme (SRS) does just that. What is the difference between contributing to SRS and CPF? Should I invest the money in my SRS? How is the money in SRS taxed?—Welcome to The Financial Coconut, your source for empowering financial knowledge and unlocking possibilities.

Work From ANYWHERE Should Be The Standard! [TFC Wise & Shine Ep 18 with Zat]

In light of recent events and the growing trend towards remote work, the question of whether work from home should be mandatory is a topic of much debate. While there are certainly benefits to remote work, such as increased flexibility and reduced commuting time, there are also potential downsides, such as decreased social interaction and difficulty separating work and home life.During the pandemic when most of us were required to work remotely, we’ve come to realize that we dont really need to be in the office 9 hours a day just to get work done. So why isnt work from home a mandatory thing? Why are some companies still putting so much emphasis on being in the office when so much time and money can be saved from allowing some employees to work from home.Who else but Zat, head of content at RICE media, can give us a scoop on how inefficient and outdated the way ‘traditional’ corporations run, and how can employers and leaders capitalize on remote work.—Welcome to The Financial Coconut, your source for empowering financial knowledge and unlocking possibilities.
